How to prepare your child for their first Dental appointment.
Usually a child's first visit to our dental office should be around his/her first birthday, however, it could be as early as you'd like (as soon as the first tooth erupts or even sooner).

Do's and Donts when bringing your child for the first time.
DO: Bring your child in for a casual, friendly tour of our dental office before their appointment to familiarize them with the office.. Then make an appointment for a visual check of your child's teeth. Have a discussion with us about oral health care for your child. You may want to consider taking them along when you or a sibling has a dental appointment.

DON'T: Don't wait for an emergency for the first visit. Do not over prepare your children for dental visits. Do not use phrases like "It won't hurt much" or "It won't be too bad." Such phrases do not soothe; they only create anxiety.
